Chapter 764 - 764 A bit more advanced (4000)_2

Chapter 764: A bit more advanced (4000)_2 Chapter 764: A bit more advanced (4000)_2 In addition, a large amount of Secret Soul energy was also exchanged.

A total of one thousand units!

To earn this much Secret Soul Energy by completing a mission with minimal effort, points towards the value of each mission from the World of Calamities. As the main force exploring the Undead Cemetery, Casio received six hundred units of Secret Soul energy, while each Ghost Iron Knight received two hundred units.

Though Secret Soul energy was of use to them, it wasn’t considered precious. Among the mission rewards, the most coveted thing was the authority increase, without a doubt.

The Ghost Iron Knights had stolen the crystal from the Dreadnought City Master and submitted it to the mansion. The authority increase they’d received that time had given the Ghost Iron Knights tremendous benefits, these upgrades covered every area. More missions, more exchangeable items, extension of the mansion’s services, access to the mansion’s secret areas… and so much more.

Therefore, the Ghost Iron Knights anticipated cooperating with Casio.

They wanted to maintain a good relationship and continue this partnership.

Meanwhile, the six hundred units of Secret Soul energy that Casio received were already used. He used it to neutralize the eight hundred units of Holy Springs Water that he had obtained.

The Pale Land was shrouded in ash as usual, falling like white snow. The trio began heading toward the southwest corner to find a mountain protruding like a bull’s horn. There lay the undead’s nest, likely housing half the undead in the entire Pale Land. Casio wanted to find the Wailing Valley, not only for the Soul Jade that could nourish his Qi, but also because he always desired to battle the fleeting Qi of the dead fighters from ancient times to the present. Every sharp blade is born through countless bloody battles and countless tempering.

Casio intended to achieve the Holy Fist Realm through fighting countless battles.

So, he spends his days tracing the traces of the ghoul, his mission target in the Real World, and his nights

At the same time, in the residential area of Florence, District Five.

Soss’s investigation was at a critical moment. After five days of gathering intelligence and investigating on-site, he gradually found the activity pattern of the mission target. That dark creature once operated in the fourth and fifth districts, hunting at regular intervals. According to the last hunting event, the mission target was currently in the fifth district and would enter the bustling night market of the fourth district tonight or tomorrow night for its next prey.

And what Soss had to do was to patrol the main roads back and forth.

In this way, he had a thirty to fifty percent chance of catching the target!

As for the fight with the dark creature, Soss had no worries. His strength had been greatly improved by avid consumption of the Holy Spring Water over the past half a month, despite the side effect of his sanity being affected.

He was certain he would be the first to complete the assessment task.

Elsewhere, Sinful Thorn Solomon was also in action. On the first day of the assessment task, he had bad luck when Casio took down his mission target unexpectedly. Therefore, Solomon had to switch to another task.

Compared to the Invisible Assassin, this dark creature was evidently much more cautious. The aura it left behind in several districts was pitifully sparse, rendering Solomon’s Sinful Thorn secret techniques almost useless. Unable to find any other leads, he had to painstakingly look for clues and eliminate areas bit by bit. It wasn’t until today that he had some gains, the dark creature was likely hiding in the fourth district.

Solomon planned to work harder in the next few days, even using his rest time. He did not want to be eliminated without even passing the first round of the exam.

He was even ready to ask Candle Soul for help. After all, both parties had reasons to compel Solomon to become a Shadow Hunter on his own.

In the third district of Florence, Claire stood on the balcony of a building, staring intensely at an area in front of her. Among the four candidates, her progress in the task was the fastest, almost pinpointing the location of the mission target.

It was hidden in those structures up ahead.

Now, what remained was to lure the snake out of its hole. Claire planned to wait until the evening.

At that time, dark creatures would be active and show themselves.

Each of them had their advantages, and their plans.

As time passed to eight o’clock in the evening with the rise and set of the sun and moon, a waning moon hung amongst the branches, half hidden by the clouds. The night sky was pitch black, void of stars. Within the hazy darkness, a silhouette left the Dark Hunt Organization Headquarters. He had a clear target, heading straight towards the fourth district of Florence.

A dozen minutes later, on the bustling streets of the Florence commercial district, the night market was still thriving. Candlelight shone bright, and stores were open for business. Occasionally, ornately framed horse carriages passed by, parking by the open space next to Pleasure Street.

At night, the sex industry was always at its most active.

Secluded in a dim and quiet alley several streets away, a robust silhouette leaned against a wall, his arms crossed and concealed within the shadows.

The figure did not move an inch, his eyes firmly shut.

He resembled a sharp-contoured, hard-lined human statue.

Suddenly, the man opened his eyes. He glanced at the waning moon above concealed by the dark clouds, and took a black torch out from his bosom.
